A beautiful and engaging classic that inspires creativity and imagination

The white shape silhouetted against a blue background changes on every page. Is it a rabbit, a bird, an ice-cream cone, or just spilt milk? In this childhood classic, kids are kept guessing until the surprise ending, and they're encouraged to improvise similar games of their own.

This classic was one of the first books to introduce nonrepresentational art to children. "Inimitable. Represents one of the finest picture-book examples of abstract art and participatory text. It is a renowned American classic that continues to engage young readers with its absolute graphic strength and verbal dialogue between craftsman and child" (Children's Book and Their Creators).

Charles Shaw was discovered and nurtured by Margaret Wise Brown, his first editor. It Looked Like Spilt Milk was introduced at the same time as Brown's own Goodnight Moon and The Growing Tree from Ruth Krauss—three books that helped form the foundation of picture-book literature and continue to stand the test of time.


這是一部文字優美、引人入勝的經典作品，激發出孩子的創造力和想像力。

本書每頁以藍色為背景，搭配不同輪廓的白色圖案。這個圖案是一隻兔子、一隻鳥、一個甜筒冰淇淋、還是打翻的牛奶呢？小朋友絞盡腦汁猜想，答案卻出乎意料。此外，本書還鼓勵小朋友即興創作類似的遊戲。

本經典著作是孩子認識抽象藝術的啟蒙書籍。「本書獨一無二，是最佳的抽象繪本和互動書，也是著名的美國經典作品，藉由極富渲染力的圖畫及彷彿對話般的內容，持續吸引小讀者。

瑪格莉特・懷絲・布朗

是 Charles Shaw 的第一位編輯，也發掘培養了這位童書作家。本書和布朗的《月亮，晚安》、《The Growing Tree from Ruth Krauss》於同時間出版，這三本書奠定了繪本文學的基石，也經得起時間的考驗，屹立不搖。
